Six modules (i.e., M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, and M6) are used to implement the forward propagation calculation (a) from the chemical species Zi and {Zj} and relative coordinates {Rji} to the energy Ei as Section Energy calculation. The backward propagation (b) of modules is employed to calculate the component of force {Fji} and virial {Vji} as Sectioin Force and virial calculation. Each module can be divided into three submodules (c): FP, BP, and FIFO, where FP and BP are used to implement the calculation of forward propagation and backward propagation, respectively; FIFO is employed to transmit data from FP to BP.
